Ah, the sweet taste of nostalgia. Remember 2008? “My push-up bra will help me get my man” was all the rage, and a kid named David was freaking out after a dentist appointment. Good times. Tamron Hall apparently remembers, and she’s bringing some of YouTube’s earliest stars back for a reunion of sorts, marking two decades of the video platform that launched a thousand… well, let’s just say careers.
Comedian GloZell Green, whose push-up bra antics garnered over 60 million views (and probably a few uncomfortable bra adjustments), will be there. One wonders if she’ll still be rocking the green lipstick. David DeVore Jr., the now-grown-up “David After Dentist,” will discuss the lasting impact of that one hazy, post-novocaine moment caught on camera. And let’s not forget Tay Zonday, the “Chocolate Rain” maestro himself. 139 million views later, he’s still a walking, talking meme. What’s his life been like since the rain stopped?
This episode isn’t just a trip down memory lane; it’s a look at how a single viral moment can reshape a life. These internet pioneers, once the kings and queens of nascent social media, now offer a curious glimpse into the unpredictable nature of online fame. Where are they now? What have they learned? Did they invest their YouTube money wisely? These are the important questions, people.
